By: Fueled by hurricane winds and drought conditions, catastrophic wildfires began on multiple islands in Hawaiʻi on August 8, 2023.
The fires rapidly gained intensity leaving communities devastated throughout the state. Maui Island endured multiple uncontrolled fires leaving many homes, communities, businesses, and land devastated. Ranches and farms have also been burned.
A few structures and piles of ash are what remains of historic Lāhainā town, and search and rescue efforts continue to find survivors. If you have the means, please consider donating to the agricultural producers in Hawaiʻi whose livelihoods have been threatened and whose lives will be forever altered from these tragic events.
Funds will go directly to:
- Direct assistance for affected ranchers and farmers
- Securing feed and other resources for livestock
- Distributing beef to displaced families
- Agricultural restoration
Checks can be made to "Hawaii Rangeland Stewardship Foundation" and mailed to
